When Ye Feng repaired the door lock using the "Restore to Original" technique, sounds that made Ye Feng blush quickly came from inside the door. Moreover, the sounds became increasingly inappropriate for children, which frightened Ye Feng so much that he hurriedly pulled Zhang Qiu away. It was definitely not because he was worried that he would be unable to resist releasing his divine sense to learn some knowledge on the spot.
After pulling Zhang Qiu out of the block, Ye Feng let go of her, and Zhang Qiu's face was filled with confusion. She never imagined that after only one year of schooling, her home would be gone when she returned, and she didn't know where to go, since she had no relatives in England.
Just then, Ye Feng reached out and took Zhang Qiu's small hand gently, saying, "Even though the house has been rented out, you still have me, sister. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I will never let you sleep on the streets."
Feeling the warmth from Ye Feng's hand and listening to his tender words, Zhang Qiu's confusion vanished.
"Yes, although the house I used to live in is gone, Xiaofeng, who has always been with me, is still here. As long as Xiaofeng is here, anywhere is home."
Thinking of this, a bright smile bloomed on Zhang Qiu's face again. Seeing that Zhang Qiu had recovered, Ye Feng handed her the letter and said, "Open it and take a look. This is for you."
Looking at the letter handed to her, Zhang Qiu took it and then slightly struggled to break free from Ye Feng's grip on her hand. She tore the envelope open with a ripping sound, but she was stunned when she opened it, because there was only a ring inside.
Upon seeing the ring, Ye Feng was first taken aback, then his expression became clear. If he remembered correctly, this ring was one of the many storage rings he had left for his parents.
His parents were unable to cultivate immortality. Even though he gave them a lot of pills, they only became more vigorous in terms of blood and energy, but they still could not cultivate the techniques he learned from the system, even though those techniques were the simplest ones that he had specially selected from many techniques.
Therefore, to protect their safety, Ye Feng gave them a lot of rings. These rings all had storage functions, but the storage function was just a side effect. Their real function was protection. In other words, these things were left by Ye Feng for them to use for protection.
The fact that this ring appeared in the envelope clearly means that Zhang Qiu's parents and his parents already knew about the ring's other function. In other words, the things they left at home are very likely inside the ring.
Zhang Qiu realized this the moment she saw the ring, because she was wearing the same ring as Ye Feng on the middle finger of her right hand.
Of course, she wasn't the only one; Hermione, Luna, and Ginny also wore them. In addition, Harry and Ron had similar rings, though theirs were rougher, so they usually strung them together on their wrists instead of wearing them on their hands.
"A storage ring? I wonder what Mom and Dad left us. Do you want to see it now?" As she spoke, Zhang Qiu handed the ring to Ye Feng.
"No rush, let's find a place to stay first."
"By the way, sis, what kind of place would you most like to live in?"
"Me? I'm fine anywhere as long as you're here. But if possible, I'd like the place to have a river nearby, with clear, slow-moving water, lush vegetation all around, and preferably a quiet place."
"Of course, the house must be such that you can see the sky when you open the window, and it would be even better if the sky is blue and the clouds are white."
"Only this?"
"Well... that's all for now."
"Okay, then tell me when you remember, and I'll add more."
...
A few days later, Zhang Qiu, who had stayed in a hotel for a few days, stared at Ye Feng with her mouth agape in astonishment at the unbelievably beautiful villa.
"This...is this really going to be our home from now on?"
"Yes, from now on, this will be our new home, including the surrounding area within a ten-mile radius. We will grow whatever you want to eat."
Zhang Qiu was completely stunned when she heard Ye Feng's words. In the end, she could only sigh from the bottom of her heart, "It's so good to have a rich younger brother."
Chapter 227 Everyone, Get to Farm!
Some people think that the best villas are those by the sea, but that's not actually the case. The best villas by the sea are those located in the bay and in areas that are not frequently hit by typhoons. Otherwise, you can expect your house to flood during typhoon season.
No seawater needs to be poured in. A heavy rain during a typhoon can make your villa a complete mess. Moreover, the closer you are to the sea, the more humid it will be. Only a fool would live in such a house long-term.
Therefore, after considering various factors, Ye Feng chose to buy this place.
Yes, we bought it.
Ye Feng is very rich now, and more importantly, he owns many good things that you can't buy even if you have money.
So, after finding the original owner of the manor, Ye Feng showed him a bottle of Qi and Blood Pills. Then, when he expressed his desire to buy the manor, the owner placed all kinds of certificates in front of Ye Feng without saying a word, without even mentioning the price.
Although the price wasn't mentioned, Ye Feng wasn't so casual about it. In the end, he bought the manor for a bottle of Qi and Blood Pills plus a thousand gold coins. After receiving the Qi and Blood Pills and gold coins, the original owner naturally took over the daily maintenance and management of the manor as well, since Ye Feng had fished the thousand gold coins up from a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea.
As we all know, anglers can catch anything except fish, so it's quite normal for Ye Feng to catch some treasure from sunken ships while fishing at the seaside, right? And it's also reasonable that among these treasures there happens to be a box of gold coins that are rare and in very good condition, right?
In short, it was a deal that both Ye Feng and the original owner of the manor were very satisfied with. In fact, if Ye Feng hadn't been so young and his granddaughter hadn't been so young, the nobleman who supposedly owned at least three manors would have introduced his granddaughter to Ye Feng.
After buying the villa, Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu strolled around for a while, and Ye Feng let Zhang Qiu choose her room first, since there were quite a few villas in the estate.
In the end, Zhang Qiu chose a room on the second floor with a window facing the river, while Ye Feng chose the one next to Zhang Qiu's. But just as Ye Feng was about to go buy some clothes, Zhang Qiu stopped him.
"Xiao Feng, have you forgotten that there's still something we haven't looked at?"
Upon hearing Zhang Qiu's words, Ye Feng remembered that they hadn't looked at the ring yet, so he pulled Zhang Qiu to sit down on the bedside.
Because the servants arranged by the previous owner of the manor were only responsible for managing the outside of the manor, and they would not come into the villa, Ye Feng and the others did not need to worry about being seen by him. So after Zhang Qiu took out the ring, the two of them reached out and pinched the ring.
Anyone with divine sense or strong mental power can know what's inside the ring with just a scan of their divine sense (mental power). Although Zhang Qiu's mental power is quite strong, he hasn't reached the point where his mental power leaves his body, so he still needs to touch the ring to see what's inside.
Ye Feng didn't need to. The reason he reached out his hand like Zhang Qiu was simply because he didn't want to feel too out of place. But when their spiritual power probed into the ring, both of them were stunned.
Their astonishment wasn't due to the large fortune left to them by Zhang Qiu's parents inside the spatial ring. On the contrary, the contents of the ring were actually quite worthless, consisting entirely of everyday household items they had previously used.
Yes, it included all their previous daily necessities, from wooden beds and bedding to small items like shoes and toothbrushes.
"Mom and Dad are really... thoughtful..." Zhang Qiu could only manage to utter this sentence after a long time, and Ye Feng wasn't much better off.
You might say they forgot about their kids, and it's true, they rented out the house as soon as they saw Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu weren't home for years. But to say they didn't think about their kids at all wouldn't be accurate. Although they didn't leave Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu a single penny, they left them all their personal belongings.
Ultimately, adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, Zhang Qiu kept all the items, since they were already used to them and might not be able to use new ones. So that night, in the incredibly spacious villa, Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu, as always, squeezed into the bed that was just big enough for the two of them.
The next day, before sunrise, Ye Feng quietly got up. After completing his daily task of consuming the purple energy, he ran to the rooftop to begin studying the plans for the Zheng Manor.
Such a large estate filled with all sorts of garden plants is a huge waste for Ye Feng. Moreover, although these servants were provided free of charge by the previous owner, he couldn't keep them for free forever. After all, sometimes what's free is the most expensive.
Therefore, Ye Feng decided to turn the manor into an orchard, so he had to make some careful plans.
"Girls all love romance and beauty, so let's plant a peach orchard near the main entrance. Choose several varieties so that you can enjoy the flowers when they bloom and invite a few friends over to taste the fruit when it's ripe."
"It's good to plant mangoes here, lychees here, and apples and pears here."
"Not everyone likes durian, so let's plant it a little further away. Then we can keep this area as a vegetable garden and grow fruits and vegetables. We can plant some lotus roots in the river, and then build a stone path to the river and a covered walkway. It should be quite nice to use it as a place to escape the summer heat."
"But before that, we have to dismiss all these servants, and we need to plant some tall, dense trees around the perimeter to block out the view. Otherwise, planting so many fruit trees from different regions would be too eye-catching."
As the sun slowly rose, Ye Feng told Zhang Qiu what he had said and asked her what kind of fruit she liked to eat. Zhang Qiu excitedly nodded her little head quickly to agree with Ye Feng's suggestion. After all, who could refuse an orchard where they could eat fruit all year round?
As for the different conditions required for fruit growth, the cultivator said, "Just a little bit."
They can grow medicinal herbs that have extremely harsh growing conditions, sometimes only one in a region, and some with completely opposite growing conditions, in a single field, and make them all grow lush and green. How could these few ordinary fruit trees possibly be a problem for them?
So, after planning with Zhang Qiu what to plant in which place, how much to plant, the spacing, and so on, Ye Feng waved his hand and a huge array enveloped the entire manor.
Of course, this is just the most basic shielding formation. Later, various spirit gathering formations, five elements formations, thick earth formations, spirit rain formations, defensive formations, fire separation formations, water control formations, and so on need to be set up to transform the manor into a large orchard that integrates offense and defense.
While Ye Feng was busy inscribing various magic arrays, Zhang Qiu wasn't idle either. She searched the world for all sorts of delicious fruits and vegetables while planting the fruit tree saplings that had already been brought back. But she soon realized she couldn't complete the task alone. Then she thought of her close friends, and then…
"It's not Ginny, Sister Cho asked you to come and help plant the fruit trees. Why did you drag Harry and me along?"
Ginny: [?ヘ??]
"You mean you won't eat the fruit grown here anymore? And you won't come here to play anymore?"
Ron: ミ?Д?彡
"No, no, no... I mean, I think we should bring our older brothers along too, since there's strength in numbers."
Ron immediately backed down upon hearing Ginny's words. Although the estate looked bare now, anyone could imagine how beautiful it would be once completed. And how could he possibly miss out on the countless varieties of fruit, especially those that made his mouth water just by hearing about them? After all, those were fruits highly recommended by Ye Feng.
Chapter 228 Planting the Sun
"In spring, I plant a Voldemort here, and in autumn, I can harvest a tree full of Voldemorts."
Harry: (?Д?)ノ
Zhang Qiu: "Xiao Feng! What nonsense are you talking about? Look how scared Harry is..."
Ye Feng: (⊙o⊙)…
Ye Feng, who had just planted the lychee tree, looked up at Harry after hearing Zhang Qiu's words and realized that Harry was frightened by his own imagination. Moreover, not only Harry, but everyone else was also a little scared after hearing what he said.
"Alright, let's not plant Voldemort then, let's plant Headmaster Dumbledore instead."
Zhang Qiu and others: ...
Luckily, Headmaster Dumbledore isn't here, or he would have beaten you to death.
"Hey, I've been watching you all get a little bored planting trees, so how about I teach you a song? It's called 'Planting the Sun'."
Zhang Qiu and others: ...
Zhang Qiu and the others were quite looking forward to hearing that Ye Feng was going to teach them to sing, because although Ye Feng liked to be funny, he was a really good singer. But just as they were starting to look forward to it, Ye Feng told them that he was going to teach them to sing "Planting the Sun." Wasn't that a joke?
"How could there possibly be a sun in this world..." Hermione's words were interrupted by the song of Falling Leaves.
"I have a beautiful wish: to plant the sun when I grow up. Plant one, just one is enough, and many suns will grow."
"One is for the notebook, one is for the Korean, and one is for the American."
"La la la plant the sun, la la la explodes, the world is beautiful~"
"Gulu~"
"Ye Feng... are you sure... what you want to plant is... the sun?"
Ye Feng: [?ヘ??]
"Why not? They're both the same warmth, both the same dazzling light, so why aren't they the sun?"
"Um... whatever makes you happy."
Since Ye Feng has said that, what can Hermione and the others say? But honestly, these lyrics are really terrifying. Of course, it has to be the kind of 'sun' she's thinking of, and not the sun hanging in the sky.
Hermione didn't know that the kind of sun that hangs in the sky is truly terrifying, because given enough time, it's not impossible to 'plant' a sun that hangs in the sky. After all, immortals traveling under the stars and moon are just basic operations.
Ye Feng's song dispelled the boredom in the small field. To prevent Ye Feng from singing any more outrageous 'songs', Zhang Qiu and the others spoke up. But this time, neither Zhang Qiu nor Hermione were the main characters, because everyone was captivated as soon as Luna opened her mouth.
Luna's voice was melodious and pleasant, even when she spoke normally. Now, when she sang with that voice, it was even more amazing. Even Ye Feng was momentarily stunned.
Listening to Luna's songs, Ye Feng thought of his previous life. In his previous life, he had listened to many songs of all kinds, with the most describing love. After all, love is the most hurtful word and the easiest to empathize with, so there were more love songs.
However, as he thought about it, certain 'toxic' thoughts would quietly start playing automatically in his mind, and these things were like a virus; the more you tried not to think about them, the clearer they became in your mind.
In a daze, Ye Feng heard the clear sound of a flute…
"Clang clang clang clang, clang clang clang clang clang clang..."
"The vast horizon is my love..."
Ye Feng:!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
